About Last Night
Warriors beaten by 76ers, Curry made to wait
The Golden State Warriors suffered only their 5th loss of the NBA season on Saturday, going down 102-93 to the 15-12 Philadelphia 76ers. Stephen Curry, who began the game needing 10 more 3-pointers to break Ray Allen’s all-time record, went 3-for-14 from deep.
Wild streak ended by Kings
The Minnesota Wild saw their 8-game winning streak halted by the Los Angeles Kings, who won 2-1 at home.
One college football game, two Pickswise wins
Army vs Navy was the only college football action this week, but Pickswise’s Alex Glaze found the spread (Navy +7.5) and total (Under 34.5) winners as Navy won 17-13.

Best Bet of the Day
Tampa Bay Buccaneers -3 vs Buffalo Bills
4:25 pm ET, CBS
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be trying to extend their winning streak to 4 games when they host the Buffalo Bills in Week 14. Tampa Bay is coming off consecutive victories over the Giants, Colts and Falcons. This contest will probably feature a heavy dose of Leonard Fournette since the Bills are weaker against the run than they are against the pass. The Bills are playing on a short week and still licking wounds from an alarming 3-4 record in their last 7 outings. Buffalo is 1-3-1 against the spread in the last 5 meetings between the teams. The Bucs are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 at home and 5-2 ATS in their last 7 against opponents with winning records. It is also worth noting that the home team is 4-0-1 ATS in the last 5 head-to-head matchups. Go with Tampa Bay and do so with confidence. Check out our full preview of Bills vs Buccaneers.

Stat of the Day

Boost of the day
The Browns managed only 40 total yards of rushing in their Week 12 meeting with the Ravens, but bettors who think Nick Chubb will fare much better after their bye week can take the running back to go for 100+ rushing yards (as he had done in 4 of his previous 5 starts) at enhanced odds of +340 (from +300) with DraftKings Sportsbook.
